    Virginia Gun Rights Rally

    Vikingsguy, "Two problems with your comments here -- first, the 4th amendment does not use the word crime at all; and second, you are mixing up criminal procedure and civil procedure which have different constitutional standards. For example, under civil fortiture the governement can take...

    Always wanted one

    In the beginning of my LE career i carried the Python and the S&W 686. I liked the both but the S&W was smoother and I shot better with it. Eventually traded the Python for a 1911 and kept the S&W. Should have kept them both.

    How many deer on average do you see per hunting day?

    My old lease in deep south Texas you'd typically see 25ish per sitting. On exceptional days, usually due to cold/rain, it was not uncommon to see 50 or more. Bucks in every age class and ranging from 120 to 150+ were common and typically made up half the deer you would see.

    Virginia Gun Rights Rally

    Boy, some of you folks are missing the mark. Let's break this down, because I'm not sure some of you have any idea what the Constitution even says. Now, let me preface this and tell everyone up front that I spent over 30 years as one of those "shiny badge" sheriff's down in Texas. As such...

    Scored a new Browning

    It's not terrible. Not great. I've adjusted it down as light as it will go, so better than factory setting. For a hunting rifle it's adequate...crisp and no take up or over travel. I have a two-stage on one of my Weatherby's that I like a lot more. I have an older Browning A-bolt II that...

    Scored a new Browning

    Found a new-in-the-box Xbolt Western Hunter in 7mm Rem Mag at an obscure Mom & Pop shop in San Antonio, TX. The Western Hunter was a limited production run for the 2018 SHOT Show, so finding a new one wasn't easy. Topped it with a Leupold VX3i 4.5-14 CDS, Side Focus, 30mm tube with Windplex...

    2019 Uncle Larry

    Ya' know, if you put Uncle Mike and Uncle Larry together on a hunt, it just might be as comical as watching Tim Conway and Harvey Korman. Those two are hilarious.

    Sigma 150-600mm

    Tamron 150-600, which is very comparable to the Sigma. Paired to Canon 6D. Hoot owls at very, very low light. Also a pic of Jupiter and 4 of her moons. I have the Tamron 150-600. They are very comparable. I truly enjoy mine.

    New NM Gov. asks for Game Comish resignations

    Sadly, politics and government economics will stand in the way of progress.

    New NM Gov. asks for Game Comish resignations

    It's a long shot, but I wonder if NM would entertain the idea of ranch specific and tailored management. I only mention this because in Texas (I know, I know...this ain't Texas, but hear me out) you can enroll your property in a program called Managed Lands-Deer (or MLD). You have a Parks &...

    .257 Wby Mag?

    Yes, sir. Almost too nice. I'm always afraid of dinging it while hunting or even going to the range. But brother, I sure love shooting this rifle.
